Today, Cayle turns 2!  When I think back to newborn days (pretty easy with Lindy being around!) and how all he did was eat (nursing did not go well at first), sleep (he slept through the night by 3 months old), and poop (unfortunately this is still done in a diaper), it's incredible to see his transformation to now: vast lexicon, eats everything in site, loves anything outside - especially his bike, pretty easy-going and funny little boy (he has just started calling Nick by his first name - not daddy).  Cayle is independent, determined, and focused on whatever he sets his mind to.  I just said to Nick last night, sometimes it's difficult to remember he's such a little boy, because he does such a good job with everything - like behaving at adult events, riding his bike, helping with Lindy and around the house with chores - the list goes on and on.

We are so thankful for the joy Cayle has brought to our lives.  He is a blessing each and every day (yes, even when he throws himself on the ground and flails around...)! 

We will celebrate our beautiful little boy with a cinnamon roll breakfast on his actual big day :)  The big party will come on Saturday with bike festivities: bike decorating, a bike "parade" through the neighborhood, and a bike cake.  Can't wait to share all the pictures!
